      I don't know if it's the best, but I like Borland JBuilder. Several of my colleagues use Eclipse and say that is also good.

            Thanks Niall. I had used an older (all windows) version of JBuilder before and quite liked it. But when they switched to the Java version, it became a pain :) I will give it a go again. Thanks for the recommendations. Best always, Pankaj /** I'm the one who's gonna have to die When it's time for me to die So let me live my life The way I want to - Jimi Hendrix */

              JBuilderX is excellent but make sure you have a lot of memory.

                I've always preferred Kawa. It's simple and fast, and doesn't pollute the project with weird environment files.

                      IntelliJ rocks. Fast, affordable, light, supports refactoring, and has a very, very smart editor. OTOH some people seem to love Eclipse, if you have a very powerful machine, it can be a good alternative. Yes, even I am blogging now!

                          Hi Daniel, I just gave IntelliJ a run and I must agree withh you. It is definitely a great product. I think I am going to recommend it to our management :) Thanks, Pankaj P.S: I am pretty sure they will ignore all our recommendations and end up with emacs in the end ;P /** I'm the one who's gonna have to die When it's time for me to die So let me live my life The way I want to - Jimi Hendrix */

                            JCreator[^] and Netbeans[^] are both good IDEs. Signature under construction.

                              I used an older version of Kawa and hated it. I much preferred JBuilder or Eclipse.

                                Eclipse works well. It has good editors, and great refactoring capabilities. The best thing about it is that it's easily extendable... it is not too terribly difficult to write your own plug-ins. (Although it sometimes takes time to ferret out the information needed to do your particular task..) An expert is somebody who learns more and more about less and less, until he knows absolutely everything about nothing.

                                        +1 for Eclipse. I love it...despite the fact that I dislike Java.
